Hello all, I have a Scrub Oak tree in my front yard, and I have St. Augustine underneath it. The grass is very thin and I was told that is because oak trees turn the soil acidic. I had lime put down last year but the grass still looks the same.ello all, I have a Scrub Oak tree in my front yard, and I have St. Augustine underneath it.

Acid rain reacts with metals and rocks such as limestone. Buildings and statues are damaged as a result. Acid rain damages the waxy layer on the leaves of trees and makes it more difficult for trees to absorb the minerals they need for healthy growth.
